“Meditation and hypnosis also can be together, one. In fact they are halves of one whole. And the moment you try the whole process- either beginning with hypnosis or beginning with meditation, that is simply your preference-you are moving into the same space from two doors toward one center. That center is your being.”~Osho, paraphrased from Sermons in stone
Invitation for a day of exploration of Osho Meditations and Hypnosis!
As Osho suggested, both meditation and hypnosis are doors toward our being. We will experiment with many Osho meditations techniques and Dr. Brian Alman will guide us into Self-Hypnosis to experience the center of our being. You definitely don’t want to miss this unique offering.
Dr. Alman is a sought-out expert on stress management and mindfulness, and is the founder of TruSage International. He has made several appearances on TV such as CNN, ABC News, FOX News to name a few. He teaches live events and workshops around the world. As a wellness industry mentor, Dr. Alman offers trainings (in-person & online) for doctors, healthcare providers, coaches & other wellness professionals. Many Organizations and companies like APPLE, NFL, QUALCOMM, P&G, Harvard Medical School and many others are using his Strategies.
In 1973, Brian began his studies with the man who made such a profound impact on the practice of hypnosis for healing and personal change that a whole school of hypnosis was named after him – Dr. Milton Erickson. Brian started out his journey on a concrete physical level. He was suffering from chronic and debilitating back pain. Orthopedic surgeons recommended a grueling regimen of body-casts and surgery, but they couldn’t guarantee that even after months of such a drastic treatment the pain would get any better.
A friend suggested hypnosis and, when it started to work, Brian was intrigued. He started to read everything he could get his hands on about hypnosis. That was how he found Milton Erickson, and his association with this extraordinary teacher and mentor endured for years – first as a student, then, when he was going through a particularly difficult time in his life, as a client, and finally as a co-therapist. By the mid-1980s, Brian had begun to teach, sharing what he had learned, offering workshops and seminars on the use of hypnosis in healing. He was also integrating meditation into his work with his clients, in his research, and his published writings.
“Doctors, professors, dentists, nurses and many different health care professionals were learning about Erickson, Osho, me, and most importantly themselves.” he says. Even today, skepticism and defensiveness about the effectiveness of both hypnosis and meditation is still common among many traditionally-trained medical professionals – and it was even more common 20 years ago when Brian began his work in earnest.
“But,” he says, “I simply taught by action. I had people experience what they were being taught, so within a matter of minutes most people dropped their prejudices because they had personal proof that changes were happening, and they were the creators of those changes. The fact that Osho or Erickson designed the approaches became secondary.” “Actually,” he says, “I learned a lot about hypnosis from Osho, and a lot about meditation from Dr. Erickson.”
In the eighties Osho invited Brian to Pune to teach meditators how to go deeper into meditation after reading his book, "Self-Hypnosis: The Complete Manual for Health and Self-Change". “When I saw my book in his bedroom as I was invited in… I was so pleasantly surprised to see that he had put his beautiful calligraphy on every page and that way I knew he read it all and was very interested as well as curious!”, says Brian
